I am so pleased with the tower of sweet peas this year. After having such a difficult time for so many years with aphids, it is such a shock and joy to be growing them easily and successfully this year.

The tower is an amazing mass of lavender and maroon...plus a bit of accidental red!

Lavender

Maroon

And the bonus red

The smell is just heavenly. The fragrance released by sweet peas is like no other. When the wind is blowing just right, we can even smell them half way around the house.
